2013 Subaru Legacy 2 Door

The 2013 Subaru Legacy features a variety of updates this year, including a restyled front end, a more powerful and efficient four-cylinder engine, an improved continuously variable transmission (CVT), revised suspension tuning and an available collision avoidance system. Base models now feature standard Bluetooth. The 2.5GT trim level has been discontinuedThe Subaru Legacy is a midsize family sedan available in a wide range of trim levels -- 2.5i, 2.5i Premium, 2.5i Limited, 2.5GT Limited, 3.6R, 3.6R Premium and 3.6R Limited -- distinguished by powertrain. The base engine is a 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder that makes 170 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque. It comes matched with either a six-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Also available are a 3.6-liter six-cylinder boxer engine good for 256 hp and 247 lb-ft and a turbocharged 2.5-liter boxer-4 making 265 hp and 258 lb-ft; the former comes with a five-speed automatic, while the latter gets a six-speed manual., , Even the base model with the 170-hp engine comes well-equipped, including air-conditioning, a tilt-telescoping steering wheel, an electronic parking brake and a CD stereo with an auxiliary audio jack. Higher trims add niceties like powered and heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, Bluetooth and a Harman Kardon audio system., , Ordering a Legacy with the turbocharged engine brings performance tires, larger brakes and a hood scoop. Exclusive to the top-of-the-line Limited trims is an optional voice-activated navigation system that's bundled with an iPod/USB input, Bluetooth and streaming Bluetooth audio., , On the road, we've appreciated the Legacy's standard all-wheel-drive system, a Subaru calling card that persists even as the rest of the car has been reoriented toward mainstream sales success. While this Legacy isn't particularly sporty, it rides nicely, and its diverse array of engine options sets it apart from the crowd. The only notable downsides are controversial exterior styling, limited access to some popular features and subpar fuel economy for the more powerful engines.
